UTS Finance Workshop: Ethical Decision-Making for Investment
Although ethical dilemmas are a normal and predictable part of the workplace, they can be damaging to a professional’s career if he or she is not prepared for the challenges that may test personal values and a commitment to doing the right thing
UTS Business School's Finance Discipline Group is hosting the Ethical Decision-Making for Investment Workshop
Although ethical dilemmas are a normal and predictable part of the workplace, they can be damaging to a professional’s career if he or she is not prepared for the challenges that may test personal values and a commitment to doing the right thing. Formal ethics training and an organisational culture rooted in ethical practices is vital to ensure that investors’ interests come first, and that trust grows and is maintained in the industry.
We are pleased to welcome Sonia Gandhi, Director – Ethics Education at CFA Institute based in London to Sydney. Sonia is a keynote speaker at CFA Societies Australian Investment Conference.
This event is an interactive session where we examine real-life dilemmas that may not have a clear right or wrong response. Participants consider and vote on potential courses of action, sparking lively discussions, while learning about the CFA Institute Ethical Decision-Making Framework and how to use it to analyse a situation or dilemma.
